Well... my kiddos had another amazing year with wonderful, loving teachers. Gray had Mrs. Seifert... she taught Maddox last year. And Maddox had Mr. Grimm... I can't say enough good things about him... he pushed and encouraged Maddox every day and gave Maddox amazing confidence. He was such a positive male role model. With regard to teachers... I have to say ALL of my children have been blessed with loving, caring, dynamic teachers that date back to preschool years.
With amazing teachers... we had unbelievable school programs with both boys. The end of the year Kindergarten program brought tears to everyone in the audience... 5 and 6 year olds signing (sign language) and singing "It's a Wonderful World"... Gray learned many words this year in sign language and seems to have a knack for it. He was his usual funny self... insisting on a button down and tie and of course... his spy "Batman" sunglasses (he now wants to be a spy...).
Uh... and yes... I tied the tie. :) My dad was in France... so I went on YouTube and found a tutorial on "how to tie a tie"... :) LOVE YOUTUBE :)
His usual "two thumbs up" :)
I was equally impressed with Maddox's program... I'm not sure how Mr. Grimm arranged this... but every child played a different part over a 4 day period. There was narrating, lighting responsibilities, sound responsibilities (music), lines to learn, singing and dancing. Mr. Grimm was completely hands off and the kids did everything... and they are only in first grade. Seriously impressed!!!
Here are a few favorites from his program... (Gray is so ready to be in first grade after seeing everything Maddox did this year :)
I'll end this post with a pic taken after "haircuts"...
More coming :)
